busybox). That 'distro' is maintained in-house and has been rolled out

in my experience (as user) in embedded powerpc product (civil and
environmental engineering tergetted) I only sow some industrial

Hello all,
This is my first post in this mailinglist. We're considering using the
Debian powerpc port on an embedded device for one of our on-board
systems. Basically, the choice will have to be made whether we're
going for a inhouse minimal distribution specifically targeting the
target board or g

Hi!
I've just uploaded version 0.6+20040429-1 of grub2 to experimental, which
adds support for powerpc.
Note that the code is highly experimental. It was written by Marco Gerards
in upstream and only reported to work on his computer. Feel free to have
a look and hack it up.

My company is looking at buying an Apple G4 server to run Linux on.
Does Debian Linux/PPC support the DVD-RAM drive ?
If so, is it possible to burn ordinary CDs and DVD-DATA disks ?
